Well scripture seems to indicate that there will be a new heaven and a new earth, and the two will (as NT Wright puts it) "overlap and interlock". We'll be judging the earth with Christ in his kingdom as his new divine council (see NT Wright, and Michael Heiser for more on this).
I get the feeling that there will be a lot of celebration, and worship, but also a lot of work in heaven. Only this will be work that we infinitely enjoy doing.
